Connect with the natural world through movement and art! Each day a new exploration awaits – learn how dance concepts like Energy, Flow, and Pathways relate to living plants, animals, weather, land, and water. Dancers see, feel, and discover nature in art and art in nature. Creative dance class and art project are linked thematically to support deeper understanding and engagement in the creative process. Dancers and artists share their creativity with family in an informal presentation on the last day of camp.

This camp is held on July 4th.
